In the spirit of using NSOP to recruit bright-eyed freshman, the Jester, Columbia’s humor magazine, has released a fake NSOP guide. Find it on their website or in news racks around campus beginning this afternoon. It’s somewhat similar to the actual guide, except there are way more dinosaurs.
Wondering what all those tents on Broadway between 114th and 116th are? Wonder no more: it’s the Columbia Greenmarket! Every Thursday and Sunday the market is here with tons of fresh goodies to augment your, ah, nutritious and filling John Jay/Ferris/Koronets diet. Each Thursday, Bwog has the highlights: It’s nearly September, meaning TONS OF DELICIOUS […]
Dear Class of 2016: We hear you’re going to the zoo tomorrow. And because we know things can get pretty wild at the zoo (especially when they have a DJ “mixing tunes”) we want to make sure that you stay safe before, during, and after your encounter with the wild side. Below are all the […]
Temporarily, at least. The leader of the free world is currently fielding questions on Reddit.com in what is called an AMA (ask me anything) post. He may not be the first Columbia grad to host an AMA, but he the first scorned-alum-turned-President that Bwog’s fact checkers can find. Youth vote, check. UPDATE 1: Looks like all of […]
Yesterday was CC 2016’s first Lit Hum lecture, delivered by Gareth Williams. Here are the thoughts of Isabel Robinson, CC ’16. Tuesday afternoon, hordes of freshmen could be spotted milling around Lerner, slowly but steadily making their way through a line that stretched three sides of the building. Buzzing through the air was one main […]

Freshmen say the darndest things. It’s hard to walk around this campus (or read its blogs) without coming across something rather strange/funny/sad/privileged/offensive/squirrel-y. NSOP often times provides the most diverse selection of these overheard statements or overseen events, and so we want you to send them to us! The best submission will win a free boxset […]
Left at 1020 on Monday around 10pm. Black, leather. Two main zipper areas (one padded for a laptop), and some additional space area in the front and the back. Nothing of particular value in the bag, just some pens, notepads, magazines, umbrellas, and little red notebook. Bag has a business card with my email and […]
In preparation for Under1Roof, which we are told is an NSOP event, we’ve prepared a list of must-haves, purely based on hearsay. Nobody within three degrees of the Bwog staff has ever actually attended, but some of us are still getting “stern e-mails” about scheduling a make-up session years later, and thought we might as […]
